3. Drawing Lessons for
Policy-Makers
Drivers & Politics of Regional
Integration in Southern Africa

• Functional cooperation taking place
• Regional decision-making structures make
implementation hard
• Commitments easily taken and not
necessarily planned to implement
• Also genuine constraints – capacity, finance
• Functional cooperation yes, but need for
development also – not just extraction
• Private sector key driver and beneficiary of
corridors – but “just doing what it does”
Summary

• Investment and PS bodies can play roles
• Processes key – pragmatic issues - why not
moving faster?
• Accountability on implementation, interface
on issues also important
• Implementation only if in interest
(incentives? SADC trade protocol and SAPs?
CBI and EU grants?)
• Political change a major issue for stability
Summary

1. How to better harness functional
integration?
• How to formalise bottom-up, not top-down?
• Can effective champions be created, private sector coalitions
built?
• Are corridors a pragmatic solution to RI?
• What does it mean to “accept non-implementation” starting
point?
2. How to improve RI accountability &
enforcement mechanisms?
• How to go beyond private sector as guest? Joint Institutions?
• Do they care?
• Can private sector be a monitor/driver of implementation?
• Role for regional desks in national planning entities or
ambassadors at RECs?
• PS opinion polls/rankings?
3. What can we draw for tripartite or APEI?
Lessons for national, RECs, EU,
other policy makers?

The Smart Communities Guide is an online resource to help communities become more intelligent and advance their progress. It provides practical guidance on creating smart communities, measures communities' success through indicators, and links to solutions, expertise, tools and best practices. The guide is different in that it measures a community's evolution, describes steps to success, connects expertise to content, links tools, provides vendor-neutral advice, and helps communities develop their own plans. The indicators and framework cover leadership, management, and some technical standards and are meant to help community leaders cut costs, attract investment and engage citizens.

This document discusses the benefits of charities and social enterprises collaborating through consortiums to bid for large public service contracts together. Key points discussed include: 1) Reductions in public spending and changes in commissioning require collaboration to deliver integrated, holistic services at scale. 2) Consortia allow smaller organizations to participate in large contracts and provide local, personalized services through national frameworks. 3) Clear roles, governance, and contractual agreements are needed for successful collaboration, with independent management to oversee quality assurance. 4) Sharing resources can help manage fluctuations in demand and reduce costs through centralized support functions.

Social impact bonds workshop

CANorfolk

Graham Phillips and Jane Locke are presenting on social investment and social impact bonds. Social investment involves using private money to fund social services and programs with the goal of both financial returns and improved social outcomes. A key example is a social impact bond, where private investors fund social programs and are repaid by the government if predetermined outcomes are met, such as reducing homelessness or reoffending rates. The presentation provides an overview of social impact bonds and examples in areas like children's services, substance abuse treatment, and housing for the homeless. Challenges for implementing social impact bonds at the local level are also discussed.

OECD CFE

This document provides tips for public policy measures to support social finance communities based on lessons learned. It recommends developing common definitions and frameworks, building evidence to understand the market size and needs, and supporting intermediaries to create efficient ecosystems. Public administrations should convene stakeholders, provide services, and facilitate sharing good practices. They can also generate public and private demand and introduce fiscal incentives to channel private funds to social enterprises. Transparency, coordination across levels of government, and enabling fiscal frameworks are important to maintain trust while allowing the private sector to develop sustainable markets.

This document discusses the Kay Review of UK equity markets and long-term decision making. It provides an overview of the Kay Review's analysis that short-termism is a problem in UK equity markets. The Review made 17 recommendations to address misaligned incentives and restore long-term decision making, including improving stewardship codes and disclosure requirements. The UK government responded positively but calls for further reviews. Industry reactions were mixed, with some seeing the recommendations as underwhelming and not substantive enough to restore trust.

Integrated Reporting, Corporate Governance & Responsible Boards

Dr. Basel Omar Abu-Ali

1) Integrated reporting, corporate governance, and responsible boards are interrelated. Integrated reporting helps boards better understand a company's value creation over the short, mid, and long term by linking non-financial and financial information. 2) The global financial crisis changed expectations for boards, which are now responsible for maximizing stakeholder value rather than just shareholder value. Integrated reporting helps boards assess long term business value and management stewardship through the eyes of stakeholders. 3) By adopting integrated reporting and thinking, boards can better connect how a company utilizes its resources and capitals to create value over time through its business model. This leads to more integrated and strategic analysis to support better capital allocation and long term

RCS Global

The document discusses potential partnerships between the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) and Certified Trading Chains (CTC) in mineral production. It notes that both initiatives aim to increase transparency and good governance in the natural resources sector. While their approaches and scopes differ, with CTC taking a broader value chain approach, there are opportunities for synergies. Standard 17 of the CTC requires companies to publish payments to governments in accordance with EITI standards, creating governance structures to support EITI implementation. Overall, the document explores how CTC and EITI concepts could work together to increase transparency throughout the mining value chain.

Multi-stakeholder working: lessons from the front line

MeTApresents

Multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs) involve joint decision-making between state and non-state actors on issues such as rule-setting and implementation. While non-state actors have deeper legitimacy in negotiations, true joint decision-making power may be uncertain. MSIs can be categorized based on their purpose, such as dialogue, institution-building, rule-setting, rule implementation, or rule monitoring. They face challenges including uneven representation and power dynamics between stakeholders, as well as differences in language, culture, and preconceptions. Validation of MSIs' effectiveness requires consideration of both monitoring and the quality of the multi-stakeholder process itself.

South africa regional

aikyatha

Southern Africa has four main climatic regions: deserts in the southwest, a maritime climate in the far south and southeast, steppe in the middle, and savanna forest in the north. The Namib Desert along the coast is very dry due to the cold Benguela ocean current and lack of moisture in the winds. Inland is the Kalahari Desert, surrounded by steppe grasslands. Agriculture and livestock depend on the rainfall pattern, with nomadic herding in the drier north and ranching and mixed farming further south. South Africa has important mineral resources like diamonds, gold, iron ore and coal, supporting industries like steel manufacturing.

Trade and Investment for Development

European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM)

This document discusses aid for trade (AfT) and its role in development. It makes several key points: 1) AfT is important for supporting trade-related policies, regulations, adjustments, and building productive capacity in developing countries. 2) Over 1/3 of total AfT is provided by the EU, with increasing focus on least developed countries and those most in need. 3) AfT faces challenges at the national, regional, and sectoral levels including coordination between different actors and improving private sector involvement. Going beyond aid to leverage private resources will be important.

SADC Free Trade Area (FTA), ORIGIN, ACHIEVEMENTS, CHALLENGES & THE WAY FOWARD

Innocent Bikara

This document is a term paper on the origins, achievements, challenges and future of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Free Trade Area. It discusses that SADC aims to establish a free trade area and eventually a customs union, common market and monetary union. It has achieved tariff reductions between member states according to schedules. However, it faces ongoing challenges like non-tariff measures, food security issues, overlapping memberships, infrastructure bottlenecks and others. Overall progress has been made in establishing trade policies and mechanisms, but further efforts are still needed to fully realize the goals of the SADC free trade area.

European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM)

1) The document discusses a political economy framework called PERIA that can be used to analyze regional integration in Africa. It identifies 10 key observations from applying this framework. 2) One observation is that foundational factors like colonial history, geography and economic structures shape regional organizations and integration challenges. Institutions also often prioritize form over function. 3) Actors like national leaders, regional hegemons, private sectors influence regional agendas and implementation based on their interests. Certain sectors see more political will for integration depending on the costs and benefits to leaders. 4) External factors like foreign aid and trade deals also impact the incentive environment for integration. Critical events can open opportunities for progress or blockage. The

The document discusses the role of procurement professionals in public-private partnerships (PPPs). It states that procurement professionals can play a key role in PPP units by providing technical support and guidance throughout the PPP project process, from identification to evaluation to procurement to contract management. They can also build capacity for other public sector officials and help develop the PPP market for private sector involvement. Centralized PPP units have been created in many countries to better manage PPP programs, though the specific functions of these units vary between countries.

It relies on cooperation between the African Union (AU) and Regional Economic Communities/Regional Mechanisms (RECs/RMs) in two-thirds of conflict interventions. 3) Strategic partnerships will remain important to support African peace operations. Cooperation is needed between the AU, UN, EU, and other partners on funding, capabilities, and institutional reform while ensuring African leadership.

European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM)

This document discusses the political economy of regional integration in Africa. It analyzes the key drivers and constraints of regional organizations in promoting regional cooperation on the continent. It uses five lenses to examine these factors: foundational structures, institutions, actors and agencies, sectoral characteristics, and external factors. Some key observations are that member states may signal support for regional organizations even when implementation is low priority; implementation occurs when aligned with national interests; regional hegemons influence agendas; and donors have significant influence but provide fragmented support. It concludes by discussing options for regional organizations to consider ambitions realistically given path dependencies and political realities.

European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM)

The document evaluates EU support for research and innovation in partner countries from 2007-2013. It finds that while individual projects showed promising practices, there was an overall lack of a clear strategic approach and inadequate capacity. Specifically, it concludes that the sectoral approach was effective but limited impact, instruments and modalities were not used strategically, complementarity between development and research departments could be stronger, results were largely localised without systematic progress, and innovation uptake was limited. It recommends developing a more structured strategy with clear pillars, supplementing basic support elements, and improving coordination and capacity to increase impact.

Drawing Lessons for Policy-Makers: Drivers & Politics of Regional Integration in Southern Africa

1. 3. Drawing Lessons for Policy-Makers Drivers & Politics of Regional Integration in Southern Africa

2. • Functional cooperation taking place • Regional decision-making structures make implementation hard • Commitments easily taken and not necessarily planned to implement • Also genuine constraints – capacity, finance • Functional cooperation yes, but need for development also – not just extraction • Private sector key driver and beneficiary of corridors – but “just doing what it does” Summary

3. • Investment and PS bodies can play roles • Processes key – pragmatic issues - why not moving faster? • Accountability on implementation, interface on issues also important • Implementation only if in interest (incentives? SADC trade protocol and SAPs? CBI and EU grants?) • Political change a major issue for stability Summary

4. 1. How to better harness functional integration? • How to formalise bottom-up, not top-down? • Can effective champions be created, private sector coalitions built? • Are corridors a pragmatic solution to RI? • What does it mean to “accept non-implementation” starting point? 2. How to improve RI accountability & enforcement mechanisms? • How to go beyond private sector as guest? Joint Institutions? • Do they care? • Can private sector be a monitor/driver of implementation? • Role for regional desks in national planning entities or ambassadors at RECs? • PS opinion polls/rankings? 3. What can we draw for tripartite or APEI? Lessons for national, RECs, EU, other policy makers?
